Re: Friday Coffee and Chat -- 22nd May 2026

Good afternoon everyone 💕😀

@Shaz51 @Fluttershy1 @Cat34 @Meowmy 

 

Would love to have a nice hot cuppa with whoever is around. With my birthday today in mind, I baked myself some chocolate brownie yesterday. It's pretty yummy, very rich and decadent 😊

 

I just sliced some up to share all round 🍫🍪, something for you to have with your cuppa today. Enjoy 💕

Re: Friday Coffee and Chat -- 22nd May 2026

Happy birthday @Emelia8 - I hope you have a great day!  

Thanks for sharing the brownies, I hope you got spoilt!

Re: Friday Coffee and Chat -- 22nd May 2026

Hi. How does this work? (I'm new here.) Like what does "a chat" mean? Do we be brutally honest about how were feeling, or is this polite conversation where we all say we're "fine" when we're not?

 

I'm okay with whatever the answer is, I just need to know how honest I'm allowed to be.

In response to: Re: Friday Coffee and Chat -- 22nd May 2026

Re: Friday Coffee and Chat -- 22nd May 2026

@Emelia8 happy birthday sweetheart.  Enjoy your special day

 

In response to: Friday Coffee and Chat -- 22nd May 2026

Re: Friday Coffee and Chat -- 22nd May 2026

I think I'll have a cuppa. Good idea @Shaz51 .

In response to: Re: Friday Coffee and Chat -- 22nd May 2026

Re: Friday Coffee and Chat -- 22nd May 2026

And by "brutally" I don't mean that I'm going to be mean to others, but that when I really about my feelings I'm not messing around to make everyone feel comfortable by giving the "were saying we're all okay when we're not" answer.

Hi @Shaz51

Re: Friday Coffee and Chat -- 22nd May 2026

Hello everyone. 

I hope Hannah stayed clear of the chocolate brownies @Shaz51 @Emelia8 , chocolate doesn't agree with dogs.

The half moon was nice tonight on my twilight walk.

Re: Friday Coffee and Chat -- 22nd May 2026

Very true @Dimity 😃 so no, Hannah missed out on the choc brownie for arvo tea.  She got some yoghurt and carob treats instead 🐕💕 and was happy with that.

In response to: Re: Friday Coffee and Chat -- 22nd May 2026

So glad Hannah shared in the celebrations safely @Emelia8

Re: Friday Coffee and Chat -- 22nd May 2026

@Shaz51 I’ve been more settled today, I’ve had a number of rough day recently. It might take a while to bounce back, but I can keep trying.

I have uni work to do over the weekend. Quiet days can be good. What do you get up to during quiet days?

In response to: Re: Friday Coffee and Chat -- 22nd May 2026

Hey @Dimity @Shaz51 @GezzaP @creative_writer @Jacques 

 

Anyone else having trouble with SANE access?

When I try to reply or post I am constantly asked to login.

As I've now been able to get this far, I hope that the glitch is now sorted.

Please let me know if this gets through.

In response to: Re: Friday Coffee and Chat -- 22nd May 2026

Re: Friday Coffee and Chat -- 22nd May 2026

Hi @GezzaP how are you doing?

Hey @Taali I’m not having issues right now. Has it been resolved? How has your day been?

In response to: Re: Friday Coffee and Chat -- 22nd May 2026

Re: Friday Coffee and Chat -- 22nd May 2026

I think my issue has been resolved for now.

Thanks for asking @creative_writer @Shaz51 @Dimity @GezzaP @Jacques 

Today has been quite good so far. 

Got my car back and tried driving back and forth in my driveway. A little nervous and uncomfortable, but I managed. Will try the street tomorrow. 

Looking forward to being self-reliant. 

Hope everyone is going well.

In response to: Re: Friday Coffee and Chat -- 22nd May 2026

I watch footy on the weekends @creative_writer . Sorry you are struggling.

Re: Friday Coffee and Chat -- 22nd May 2026

@GezzaP I hope you enjoyed the footy.

I’m just learning how to manage the chaos in my mind in therapy. It hasn’t been easy. Having multiple mental illnesses comes with complexities
